Akamai Technologies Partners With Aqua Security to Deliver AI-Powered Integrated Solution

Akamai Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:AKAM) is one of the Best Cybersecurity Stocks to Buy Under $100. On July 20, Akamai Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:AKAM) made a strategic partnership with Aqua Security to deliver an integrated solution that offers full-spectrum protection for AI applications from the AI workload to the edge.

As AI adoption across enterprises rises, security teams face the growing challenge of protecting dynamic AI workloads from threats such as prompt injection, data exfiltration, model manipulation, and toxic output. This collaboration combines Aqua’s deep runtime defense Secure AI with Akamai’s Firewall for AI. This will secure AI applications requiring core changes or application refactoring.

“AI applications are redefining the attack surface, and it’s not just about protecting what happens inside the model, but everything around it. As enterprises embrace AI to drive productivity and growth, most still lack the visibility to deploy it securely. Together with Aqua, we’re giving customers end-to-end control across the full AI lifecycle so they can innovate with speed and confidence,” said Rupesh Chokshi, SVP & GM, Application Security at Akamai Technologies.

Some of the key capabilities of the Akamai-Aqua solution would include AI model and agentic service discovery, prompt defense, AI workload protection, model-aware behavior profiling, and frictionless deployment.

Akamai Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:AKAM) is a cybersecurity and cloud computing firm that develops and provides solutions for global enterprises. Akamai provides solutions to build, secure, and accelerate enterprises’ applications and digital experiences.
